Dell will bring back the matte display option in the XPS 13 9380, HDR panel a possibility as well

[Redaktion]

Lack of a matte display option was one of the pain points of the Dell XPS 13 9370, making it a tad difficult to use under direct light or outdoors. We had a chance to speak to some panel manufacturers during Computex 2018 and luckily, they tell us that the upcoming XPS 13 9380 will feature a matte display option. Also, based on the information thus far, we get to speculate that HDR panels are a likely possibility in the upcoming XPS lineup.

[Alienware vs XPS]

It would be great if Dell could work on the following features on the XPS 13 9380:
- 32GB RAM (though it would still be nicer to have non-soldered memory)
- better, larger keyboard similar to Latitude 7490 or Alienware 13 R3
- quieter cooling
- better sustained CPU performance
- maybe a better GPU similar to the MX150 with min. 2GB RAM
- less tiny speakers
- easier to access, service and replacable RAM, M.2 (full speed) NVMe 2280 slot

I really love the size and footprint of the XPS 13, but it just is too weak for 4K video editing.

And also the 7490's touchpad + buttons.

1 why users know more than the designers?
2 why designers not follow users preferences?
